Bogo City Prepares for Sinulog 2014

By Art M.
Despite the devastation brought by super typhoon Yolanda, students from the City of Bogo division will join this year's Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Lalawigan parade on the 11th and maybe the Grand Parade itself on  the 19th.

Cebu Daily News reported that 65 high school dancers, instrumentalists and propsmen have been practicing for the competition since December 15, 2013. They relied mainly on the P200,000 cash aid from the Bogo City government.

“Our recovery is ongoing. Many supported us. We just can’t turn our back on the Sinulog,” Ursal told Cebu Daily News in Cebuano.

Bonifacio Ursal, the MAPEH coordinator of the Bogo City Schools Division, said they were hesitant at first about joining the Sinulog this year because of budget and time constraints but later agreed to join to show their thanksgiving to the Sto. Nino for keeping them safe and alive.

Bogo's entry will show how Yolanda devastated the city and how Bogohanons survived.

5th Charter Day Celebration

By Art M.
Message from the City Mayor The City of Bogo celebrates its 5th year of cityhood. And yet, it seemed but only yesterdaythat we finally earned our right to be recognized as one. It was a recognition bitterly fought at the highest court of the land; it was a victory that, no doubt, is a major one.

It is an award given to local government units in recognition of their good governance pratices for its efforts in the areas of Good Pl...
